Abstract An infection with Histoplasma capsulatum was diagnosed in a farmed reindeer in Missouri, an endemic area for histoplasmosis, localized in the intestine. The intrahistiocytic organisms were identified in tissue sections using histologic methods and confirmed by immunohistochemistry. This is the first report of histoplasmosis in a reindeer or in any deer species.
